Configured grant-based uplink transmission with transport block (tb) processing over multiple slots

Abstract

Various embodiments herein provide techniques related to identifying, when a user equipment (UE) is in a fifth generation (5G) or new radio (NR) cellular network, a data that is to be transmitted in a transport block over multiple slots (TBoMS) in a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); identifying, based on an indication received from a base station, a number of repetitions for transmission of the PUSCH; and transmitting, based on the indication, the TBoMS in the PUSCH over the multiple slots. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

         25 . The apparatus of  claim 22 , wherein transmission of the A-CSI is based on identification, by the UE, of a downlink control information (DCI) format of a DCI received from the base station. 
     
     
         26 . The apparatus of  claim 25 , wherein the DCI format is DCI format 0_1 or 0_2. 
     
     
         27 . The apparatus of  claim 22 , wherein data is transmitted on remaining ones of the multiple slots of the TBoMS. 
     
     
         28 . The apparatus of  claim 21 , wherein the multiple slots are terminated at a last slot with a period that is related to the CG PUSCH transmission. 
     
     
         29 . One or more non-transitory computer readable media comprising instruction that, upon execution of the instructions by the one or more processors, are to cause the UE to:
 identify, when the UE is in a fifth generation (5G) or new radio (NR) cellular network, a data that is to be transmitted in a transport block over multiple slots (TBoMS) in a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);   identify, based on an indication received from a base station, a number of repetitions for transmission of the PUSCH; and   transmit, based on the indication, the TBoMS in the PUSCH over the multiple slots.   
     
     
         30 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of  claim 29 , wherein a first slot of the multiple slots has different data than data of a second slot of the multiple slots. 
     
     
         31 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of  claim 29 , wherein aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI) and data of a transport block are transmitted in a slot of the multiple slots of the TBoMS. 
     
     
         32 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of  claim 31 , wherein the A-CSI is transmitted in a first slot of the multiple slots. 
     
     
         33 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of  claim 31 , wherein transmission of the A-CSI is based on identification of a downlink control information (DCI) format of a DCI received from the base station. 
     
     
         34 . The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of  claim 29 , wherein the multiple slots are terminated at a last slot with a period that is related to the CG PUSCH transmission. 
     
     
         35 . An apparatus for use in a base station, wherein the apparatus comprises:
 one or more processors; and   one or more non-transitory computer readable media comprising instruction that, upon execution of the instructions by the one or more processors, are to cause the base station to:
 transmit, to a user equipment (UE) an indication of a number of repetitions for transmission of a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) that includes a transmission of a transport block over multiple slots (TBoMS); and 
 identify, based on the indication, received transmissions of the PUSCH in the multiple slots. 
   
     
     
         36 . The apparatus of  claim 35 , wherein the TBoMS includes aperiodic channel state information (A-CSI) and data of the transport block. 
     
     
         37 . The apparatus of  claim 36 , wherein the A-CSI and the data are transmitted in a first slot of the multiple slots, and data is transmitted in remaining slots of the multiple slots, and the A-CSI is not transmitted in the remaining slots. 
     
     
         38 . The apparatus of  claim 36 , wherein transmission of the A-CSI is based on a downlink control information (DCI) format of a DCI transmitted by the base station.
